Diogo Jota was not seen during Liverpool's open training session on Tuesday.

The forward suffered an apparent rib injury during the 2-1 win over Chelsea on Sunday.

In his post-match news conference, manager Arne Slot said: “I’m not sure what it is but I would be surprised if he’s there on Wednesday.”

Defender Conor Bradley and summer signing Federico Chiesa were also not part of Tuesday's training while goalkeeper Alisson Becker and midfielder Harvey Elliot were also absent as they recover from their longer term injuries.

Despite this, the Liverpool squad looked in great spirits as they prepare for Wednesday's Champions League match against RB Leipzig.
